SOS and our coalition partners and allies are organizing events and activities across the region to educate and inspire, and engage and mobilize the public and policymakers to act and implement a comprehensive regional solution that protects and restores Snake River wild salmon and steelhead and invests in Northwest communities.
Please join us at these upcoming events - to speak up for the Columbia-Snake River Basin, its wild salmon and steelhead, Southern Resident orcas, and to support Northwest Tribes.
If you have questions or want to get more involved, please contact Abby Dalke at abby@wildsalmon.org. To take action now, visit our action alert page!

Watch All Our Relations: Tribute to the Orca
What: All Our Relations: Tribute to the Orca is a moving 7-minute film drawing from an Orca Action Month Indigenous-centered event hosted by Se’Si’Le, an Indigenous-led nonprofit organization, in collaboration with Salish Sea and Northern Straits Native Nations and NGOs.
The film highlights Indigenous communities' ancient kinship with orcas and salmon, and the importance of reciprocity in our relationship with our caretaker: Mother Nature. A special focus is on the Southern Resident orcas whose survival, like the survival of Indigenous lifeways here in the Pacific Northwest, depends on scha’enexw (the Salmon People).
